Clinical Affiliation

There are numerous clinical affiliations for PA students to complete their supervised clinical training. Students will be notified of their clinical training sites during the spring/summer semester of the didactic year. Those sites are located in Harnett and surrounding counties in North Carolina.

Clinical Rotations at Distant Sites

While many clinical educational rotations are in Harnett and surrounding counties, it may be necessary for the program to arrange some rotations at distant sites. Every effort will be made to arrange clinical rotations that are within 90 minutes’ drive time from campus, or from a student’s home, for those who are North Carolina residents. Travel expenses are the student’s responsibility. Nevertheless, there are times when it may be necessary for the program to send some students to sites that are not within convenient driving distance. In those few instances students will be responsible for travel and may be responsible for discounted housing costs, if available through North Carolina AHEC. Distant rotations will account for no more than three of any student’s total rotations.
